Rotational suspended disc mower is intended mow green fodder such as grass and alfalfa on
permanent grassland (pastures), on crop fields without rocks, and to form loose rows of cut
fodder. The pasture or field being mown should be even and best if prepared by rolling. In
the event there is a majority of tall grass, the first and second mowing should be done at a height
of 2.4" - 2.8", while with a majority of short grass, at a height of 2". The last mowing should be
done a little higher - at 2.8" - 3.1" from the ground.
Trailed front mower with tine/roller conditioner is intended to mow green fodder such as grass
and alfalfa on permanent grassland (pastures), on crop fields without rocks, and to form loose
rows of cut forage. As a result of the passing of the layers of the green fodder through the flails
or rollers, the grass stems are broken and a layer of wax is removed. This facilitates and speeds
up the drying process of the fodder by approximately 30 to 40%. The use of rollers is especially
recommended when mowing legumes such as alfalfa. Rollers are particularly recommended for
mowing grass legume such as alfalfa.
The pasture or field being mown should be even and best if prepared by rolling.
NOTE: Grass, which has not grown much should be mowed with zero angle inclination.
